Hi Everyone! I live in Bonney Lake, Washington. The girl from Puyallup and the Tacoma person probably know where that is. I am 49, have 3 grown kids, the youngest of which is 20 and he's still living at home (he's a great kid, though, and I'm really in no hurry for him to leave). I also have one 7 year old grandson, whom I absolutely adore. I take care of disabled people in their home for a living and have taken care of the same woman for 5 years now. My hubby isn't interested in any computer games, all he wants to do is try to mess his computer up so he can fix it again. I won't let him touch mine! LOL! He is an electronic tech and loves to fix things. But at least he doesn't get upset with me for being on the computer most of the time. I downloaded VV1 from BigFish then bought VV2 directly from LDW. Love these games (but hate that GC!). I usually play the Sims2 and 3 of it's expansion packs but got tired of it (for now--I'll go back to it eventually) and I was also hooked for many months on Oblivion. I have two dogs (am allergic to cats, but I do like them), a male Black Lab named Seth and a female Golden Retreiver named Sadie (both are fixed, so no pups).

Talking about rain a little further back - we always get a lot of rain here, but this year we broke all records and had so much flooding that they had to declare a state of emergency. As soon as that cleared up we had record breaking winds and lost power for a week. Once that cleared, we had early snow and everything shut down again. Whew! Enough. But as I watch the news about the rest of country, I'm glad I live here. :-)
